Session 10 – The Purpose of the Study

×

It’s important to remember that the purpose of our study is to understand human nature—the nature in which we are, how we develop, our unique position on the path of evolution—and what we learn from Nature: toward what we are evolving, and what is our next, and final form. We are here in order to learn how we can achieve our final form, both nicely and quickly, since the final state is undoubtedly the perfect state. Meaning, at the end of the day, the study is about how to make our lives from now on, easy, good, safe, and pleasant.

Man can learn from nature's altruistic behavior – "If we help others in times of their need, we ourselves may get help when we are in trouble, and in the end, our human race will have better chances of survival."

"As a society, we have to learn better how to learn – I call it social learning; it is the dynamism for change that could lead us to a new kind of society that will not destroy itself from its own excesses… for we must share a vision for a new society before we can realize it."

It's time for an Active Break

Now it’s time to stretch a bit from off of your chair, get up, get your blood flowing in your entire body, stretch your arms upward, and take a deep breath. The goal is for you to be able to continue the course with energy and joy. (If it’s a home course, we can suggest the person get something to drink, a glass of water, and please use any other original ideas to get refreshed.)
